INTRODUCTION

Nearest (NRST) Pages

The NRST Page Group provides detailed information

on the nine nearest airports, VORs, NDBs, intersections,
and user-created waypoints within 200 nm of the current
position. In addition, pages are also provided to display
the five nearest center (ARTCC/FIR) and Flight Service
Station (FSS) points of communication, plus alert the
pilot to any nearby special-use or controlled airspaces.

There are eight pages available in the NRST group:

• Nearest Airport Page
• Nearest NDB Page
• Nearest User Waypoints Page
• Nearest FSS Page
• Nearest Intersection Page
• Nearest VOR Page
• Nearest ARTCC Page
• Nearest Airspace Page

The communication frequencies and runway

information may both be examined directly from the
Nearest Airport Page. As discussed earlier for the NAV/
COM Page, the pilot may also place any displayed
frequency into the standby COM or VLOC field by
highlighting the frequency with the cursor and pressing
the ENT Key.

Displaying the NRST pages:

1) If necessary, press and hold the CLR Key to

select the NAV group and display the Default
NAV Page.

2) Turn the large right knob to select the NRST

Page Group, as indicated by ‘NRST’ appearing
in the lower right corner of the screen.

3) Turn the small right knob to select the desired

NRST Page.

Displaying a list of nearby airports:

1) Turn the large right knob to select the NRST

Page Group and (if needed) the small right
knob to select the Nearest Airport Page (Figure
1-25).
